But there’s some way to go until the details are confirmed… On Wednesday, Iran’s state media reported that there are 40 foreign nationals arrested for their involvement in the protests that have rocked the nation. Those include people from France, Sweden, Italy, Poland, the Netherlands and Germany. And yesterday, reports said a dual Australian-Iranian citizen has also been imprisoned, but with the regime refusing to recognise dual nationality, they have not had access to consular support. The Department of Foreign Affairs says it “holds concerns” for the individual who has not been named. It also says it’s “not aware” of the person’s involvement in the widespread demonstrations. Australia has not imposed any sanctions on Iran in response to the state’s violent crackdown on demonstrators. Former prisoner/academic Dr Kylie Moore-Gilbert says that’s the wrong approach.
